Former Apple CEO John Sculley has expressed confidence in the AI-hardware devices being developed by former Apple design chief Jony Ive in partnership with OpenAI. Speaking at the Zeta Live conference, Sculley pointed to Ive’s design history as an indicator of future success with the new devices. Talking about Ives, Sculley said: “He’s the one who actually designed and built the iMac, the iPod, the iPhone, and the iPad. If there’s anyone who is probably going to be able to bring that dimension to the LLM, in this case OpenAI, it’s probably going to be Jony Ive, working with Sam Altman.”
OpenAI recently acquired Jony Ive’s device startup for more than $6 billion. At OpenAI’s DevDay conference this week, Ive stated that the hardware his team is developing aims to address some of the issues that smartphones and tablets have created since their launch.
